Hi Duncan,
Before you post a reply i did some research and shortlisted following schools :
1. Urbana champaign
2. Purdue university
3. University of connecticut
4. Telfer school of management ( canada)
5. Belk college of business.
Based on the average gmat, first 3 might be a little strech, however my extracurricular activities would help.
Telfer seems to be the only one ( from canada ) that fits me.
Not sure about belk, did't have much info about it.
Can you quote couple of colleges where my chances would be better.
Any idea about belk college, uncc.
Thanks in advance.

In my opinion you are in no way a competitive candidate at those first three schools, nor at Broad. All of them have average GMAT scores above yours, and schools will expect Indian candidates (who often don't add much to the diversity of a cohort since they are often men in technical functional roles) to have a GMAT well above the average.
Belk is mainly a commuter school, without strong career services. It's not bad for finance.
Read the article again. Look for schools with average GMAT scores under 600 -- and improve your GMAT.
